Certified Tutor

Hello! I scored in the 90th percentile on the GRE Quant section and on the LSAT, and so can you. I am a results-oriented, subject-matter expert when it comes to test prep, and all math levels up to Calculus.

I am a top-performing tutor as my students have seen substantial improvements in their performance, scores and cognitive development.

While our sessions will be intensive, I'll make sure we will have a positive experience where no book in the world can replace.

I have worked with over 50 students who have seen their scores and grades improve after working with me, with some jumping 20 points in their raw score. Both logic theory and fundamentals are reviewed thoroughly before we apply them directly. Together, we will achieve higher scores!

Further, I've wanted to always teach, so tutoring test prep is my way of being able to share my knowledge with students every step of the way. My goal is to make the student self-sufficient so that learning can become natural and self-fulfilling. I'm currently at NYU while consulting for federal agencies.

Enhanced learning is more achievable with personalized tutoring, let's get to work!

I also adhere to the Statements of Principles of Good Practice of the Association of International Graduate Admissions Consultants (AIGAC) and Independent Educational Consultants Association (IECA).

What is your teaching philosophy?

Continuous check-on-learning is a pillar of my tutoring philosophy. Building strong foundations of basic concepts that relate to the subject is another important part of my philosophy.
